Halloween Candy Time

I don't eat candy but I sure like the way it looks! I think it makes a great Halloween decoration.


For any of you that made my celebration rolls, here is a new variation. If you want the recipe, just click on 'celebration rolls' on my sidebar. I double the recipe each time I make them because they don't last long and if there are extras, they freeze really well.




I made pesto with the basil from my garden. After I rolled out the dough, I spread a layer of pesto over it.


I sprinkled it with a shredded imported provolone and Beemster cheeses.


I cut them into about 1 1/4 inch slices.


I placed them on parchment covered cookie sheets and spread them open a bit. While the oven preheated to 425 degrees, I let them rise a bit.

They bake for about 15 minutes. The cheese should be turning brown and they should be golden on the sides.


You can see that I got a bit over two dozen. We all agreed that these are the best out of the three versions I've made so far.


I also baked some banana bread. Do you ever notice how all of my food matches my counter top?
